✈️ It's great to see that one of my favourite iOS focus apps FocusFlight got an update to version 2. And just like before, it offers an excellent (onboarding) experience!

And what's also nice to see is that when I search for the app, I can still find my original small review on page 1 of search results 🤩

🦊 I'm giving Firefox a go as my browser for personal usage, syncing my bookmarks between Windows (work), Mac and iOS. I always had a disconnect when using Safari, and as I can't use Raindrop at work, I'm giving this syncing setup a try.

🤦‍♂️ I've been going about my RSS workflow all wrong. While it was nice to use Reeder Classic (with Inoreader as source) and save what I found interesting to Readwise Reader, it didn't help with keeping up with my article backlog, nor using Readwise Reader more often.

This weekend I had an epiphany during a run.

Instead of using different tools and workflows, I should be going for just one: Readwise Reader. With that in mind, I cleaned my backlog, migrated my RSS feeds, organized them and created some views.

And just like that, my RSS feeds, saved articles, videos, podcasts, highlights, ... all are served as one convenient package.

How could I have been that ignorant for such a long time?

📄 I yesterday mentioned to @maique that I had an RSS crisis last year, switching from one app to another, but eventually found peace of mind with Inoreader (as source manager & Windows reader) & Reeder Classic (iOS), where I've been using this setup for months now.

Ironically, also yesterday, I bought a new RSS reader, called Current (9.99€ - iOS/Mac), also supporting Inoreader as source.

But here me out. It uses the concept of a river for read-later which I first heard of via an article of Oliver Burkeman. In essence, read-later is not about catching up, but rather about plucking items that interest you. Current, adheres to that principle, not showing an unread count and purging the river of older items (with a lot of choice on how that is handled), removing the feeling of overwhelm and the need to catch up.

I've only been using it for a day now, but I like it very much. The experience is very nice, as well as the tweaking, and the fact I don't need to mark everything as read offers peace of mind.

And if I ever need it, I can go to Inoreader or Reeder classic to check a specific source and all its publications.

And let me also suggest to check out the in-depth explanation of Current by Terry, and his article on phantom obligation, which put it all in motion.
